Thank you, Georgia! After last night’s primary, I am officially the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Georgia. This race in Georgia is likely to be the most competitive and expensive U.S. Senate race in 2026. I am the *only* endangered Democratic incumbent U.S. Senator in the midterms. Republicans are preparing to unleash massive resources attacking me and this seat. But our victory will be powered once again by overwhelming grassroots support. If you know the stakes and how important your support is — and if you are ready to split a donation to help start the general election in the strongest position possible and support the DNC please use this link: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/em-dnc-ossoff-split/General-Election Otherwise, let me tell you a bit about why I ran for Senate — and why this moment is just as urgent. Before I was elected, I led investigations of corruption and human rights abuses worldwide. We exposed wrongdoing in countries where criticizing the government is dangerous, where whistleblowers and witnesses will only meet in secret, where protest carries the risk of prosecution. More and more, the atmosphere under Trump has reminded me of those places — places where dissent was silenced by intimidation and where unaccountable elites plunder and trade power for profit with impunity. I ran for Senate because I saw that Trump’s election endangered our Republic and I was determined to confront him and the corruption that made his rise possible. And that work isn’t over yet. This is not a drill and it’s not a bad dream. As citizens, it’s the test of our lifetimes. So please, I’m humbly asking: Split a contribution between my reelection campaign and the DNC. Do it today and help us start the general election in the strongest possible position. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your split contribution between Jon Ossoff and the Democratic National Committee instantly: We know MAGA’s election playbook: Lie. Enrage. Distract. And between the Fulton County raid, the executive order attacking voting, and the plotting of the MAGA loyalists on our state election board… they've made their plans very clear. But we’ve beaten them before — right here in Georgia. In 2021, we defeated an entrenched GOP incumbent by staying on offense and organizing a turnout effort totally unprecedented in its scale and intensity. This is the next test. And the best insurance against MAGA’s dirty tricks is landslide margins of victory. My team is preparing a larger-than-ever-before effort to get out the vote and defend voting rights. That work is not easy or cheap. We have to work relentlessly through Election Day, and we need the resources to reach every single voter. So, I have to ask: Can you please make a donation to my reelection campaign and the DNC? The average donation to this campaign is around $30. Many give less. Some give more. What matters is that we show strength in numbers — and that we show it now. Thank you so much. — Jon |

I’m officially the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Georgia
The good news

Emily, I’m the hope and change guy, but I’ll be honest: we’ve got some real work to do in this country. And if we want to make progress, we’ll need leaders who tell the truth, tackle hard problems, and serve the people who put them in office in the first place. The good news is we have the chance to elect leaders like that this year — in both houses of Congress, governorships, state legislatures, and offices up and down the ballot. But it’s going to take all of us to do it. It’s up to all of us, as citizens, to stand up for our values. We can’t just leave it to somebody else. We have to fight, even when it’s hard. Republicans want you to think that a few people in power make all the decisions and the rest of us have to live with the consequences. But when you look at the history of America, real change has always come from the bottom up — from ordinary folks who make it happen. So yes, we are being tested. But we have the power, as citizens, to change this country. We’ve just got to use it. Emily, the DNC is the only organization working to elect the Democratic leaders we need at all levels of government, all across the country. When you chip in to the DNC, you’re supporting thousands of candidates we must elect this year. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly. Thank you, Emily.
